Songtext Wire The Nixons

Wire

We have heard the songs of angels
We have tasted flames from hell
We have seen the fallen hero
We have heard the ringing bell
And it all seems cleaner in the rain
Now it all begins to look the same

We have come into this lifetime
With only a few things on our side
Although we are only mortal men
The choice to change is yours and mine
And it all seems cleaner in the rain
And it all begins to look the same

Now the laughter turns to tears
Now the seconds seem like years
Oh but I'm still holding on
Driving through the tears

Only one world we've been given
Earth - wind - sea - air
We're burning holes into the morning sky
And we have learned not to care
And it all seems cleaner in the rain
And it all begins to look the same

Now the laughter turns to tears
Now the minutes seem like years
But I'm still holding on
Driving through the tears

And it all seems cleaner in the rain
And it all begins to look the same
Now the laughter turns to tears
Now the days seem like years
I hear the gods begin to cheer
As we watch our sky disappear

This is my Exodus
This is my Wire
Send it to those who care
I'm still holding on
